Definitions

  • the invention relates to an adjusting device for Tilt adjustment of a pivotably articulated casing tube a steering spindle of a motor vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • an adjustment device for change the inclination of a casing pipe of a motor vehicle which comprises a rectangular frame which Jacketed pipe supported on the vehicle body.
  • the framework used for Adjustment of the casing tube accommodates a spindle drive additionally trained as a handlebar by its side parts at the end in two spaced, parallel Swivel axes on the parts of the Framework are stored. Through these side steering levers Pivoting of the jacket tube on a radius around his removed swivel axis with a straight-line displacement the spindle drive along its spindle possible.
  • an adjustable steering column is one Motor vehicle described with the construction by a variable-length connector is connected.
  • the Piston-cylinder unit used can handle the heavy weight of the entire steering column, which is completely on the for the Tilt adjustment attacks specific link, only support unreliably because the holding effect of the seal of the piston in the cylinder.
  • the jacket tube by means of two in length independent of each other motor-driven spindle drives to connect with 2 fixed points of the body.
  • the spindles are arranged at an angle to each other, which makes them at Inclination adjustment of the casing tube depending on each other with different adjustment and different Swivel movement must be retracted or extended, otherwise the adjustment movement is blocked, which means a lot of effort is required in order to act as a handlebar spindle drives coordinate their change in length.
  • an adjustment device for a steering spindle which has a steering spindle drive covered with a single spindle and as an additional support a telescopic extension is required.
  • the telescopic extension is at Tilt adjustment of the steering spindle neither to the spindle pivoted in parallel or it has the same extension or Shortening to.
  • the spindle drive engages in the top center Jacket tube on, which ensures the stability of the arrangement Support of the steering spindle is not sufficient, but the necessary space is large.
  • JP (U) -A-63-19469 (1988) indicates an inclination adjustment a steering column, in which a spindle drive a support web on which the jacket tube is fixed.
  • the object of the invention is a generic Adjustment device with few components working to train.
  • the task is characterized by the characteristic features of the Claim 1 solved.
  • the adjustment device for tilt adjustment of a swivel articulated jacket tube of a steering shaft of a motor vehicle ensures a safe, non-positive support of the casing tube or the steering column in any set swivel position.
  • One of the swivel axes of the steering lever is in the Support device and the other pivot axis in the spindle drive integrated, which saves a separate steering lever. It is advantageous to manufacture the support device itself this pivot axis to pivot on the body and the other pivot axis on the non-rotatable part (spindle or nut) of the Provide spindle drive.
  • the body Support device useful, the rotating by the drive Part of the spindle drive, which is its counterpart in the longitudinal direction procedure to store on the support device and over a to drive flexible or articulated shaft, so that the drive on Structure can be set dormant. So that the drive neither with the movement of the casing tube as an additional weight be moved, the vibration load of the Jacket tube increased by the drive.
  • the casing tube 1 receives a rotatable steering spindle 3, which Steering movement from the steering wheel in the vehicle interior to the Steering gear or the vehicle wheels transmits.
  • the casing tube 1 To the height of the steering wheel to the seating position of the occupant to be able to adjust, the casing tube 1 raised or lowered and locked in the desired altitude.
  • the adjusting device 2 includes a spindle drive 4 two non-rotatably mounted spindles 5 and interacting therewith rotatable adjusting nuts 6a, 6b.
  • a spindle drive 4 two non-rotatably mounted spindles 5 and interacting therewith rotatable adjusting nuts 6a, 6b.
  • rotatable adjusting nuts 6a, 6b In further training can also drive the spindles and the locknuts be rotationally fixed.
  • the spindles 5 are each in a pivot bearing 16 on one Carrier 17 mounted on which the casing tube 1 is attached.
  • the Jacket tube 1 is located between the spindles 5, whereby the Lateral forces on the casing tube 1 with a smaller lever path in Spindle drive 4 can be supported as if the jacket tube 1 would be attached to the bottom of the carrier 17.
  • the casing tube 1 is raised at this point or lowered and thus adjusted its inclination, which then the steering wheel is also changed in altitude. If the Spindles 5 are not moved by the drive 7, they are rotatably, whereby the inclination of the casing tube 1 is positive preserved.
  • a component of the setting device 2 is a Support device 18, which serves the jacket tube 1 on Store vehicle body 8. This supports the adjusting nuts 6a, 6b non-displaceable in the longitudinal direction but rotatable about the longitudinal axis and also serves to support the gears 10, 11, 12 and 13.
  • the storage of the rotatable part of the spindle drive 4, here the Locknuts 6a, 6b leads to a short one to be bridged Away from the drive 7 to the adjusting nut 6a or 6b.
  • the Support device 18 is via the spindle drive 4 with the Jacket tube 1 connected.
  • the spindle drive 4 Since the jacket tube 1 is pivotally articulated at the lower end the carrier 17 is moved on a circular path, the spindle drive 4 but moves the carrier 17 on a straight line, acts between the casing tube 1 and the body 8, a steering lever 19 which this Align movements with each other.
  • the steering lever 19 assigned two parallel pivot axes 20 and 21, one for the pivoting have a sufficient distance from one another.
  • the steering lever 19 is not designed as a separate component, but into the setting device 2 from the support device 18, Spindle drive 4 and carrier 17 of the casing tube 1 integrated.
  • a the pivot axis 20 is provided on the support device 18, where this storage also the storage of the Includes support device 18 on the vehicle body 8, and thus no further attachment has to be provided.
  • the corresponding pivot axis 21 is at the distal end of the Spindles 5 realized in the respective pivot bearings 16, whereby then the effective lengths from adjusting nut 6a or 6b and Spindle 5 between these two pivot axes 20 and 21 Steering lever function takes over.
